Running the numbers, Morgan believes he's covered every possible He has conceived the perfect crime, a heist that will set him up for life. All that stands between him and his payday is a violent burglary that must progress with inhuman precision. There is, however, another problem. Always calculating, always playing the odds, Morgan can't shake the nagging feeling in his gut that he's missing some critical variable. He's playing a game whose stakes are life and death… and even Skull Morgan isn't certain who holds the winning hand. MISCALCULATION is one of four prequel novellas set in the ALPHA DRACONIS Universe. They are an exciting and well-priced way to explore additional background information about the characters and gain story insight not available to those readers that have only read ESCAPE FROM ALPHA DRACONIS. These prequel novellas do not need to be read in any particular order; just pick one up and join in the action at any point, with no fear of getting lost.
